Alison West www.alisonwestceramics.com [//www.alisonwestceramics.com] and Abi Higgins www.abihiggins.co.uk [//www.abihiggins.co.uk] have been running Saggar, Barrel and Raku Firing workshops since 2018.  Our participants have come from the UK,  Europe and as far as Australia to participate in these alternative firing techniques.  The workshops take place in Abi Higgins' beautiful rural studio and grounds in  Christow, Devon, South West UK with good access to Exeter [https://www.google.com/maps/place/Exeter/@50.7244282,-3.5135475,13z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x486c52c4d4498da7:0xa976e3256bdfad1e!8m2!3d50.7260367!4d-3.5274889] with an airport and train station. A  range of local B&B's and other accommodation is close by.  The two day workshops are intended for all ceramicists with  limited or no previous knowledge of alternative firing techniques  and  those who have experience but would like to learn more about different techniques. The two day workshop will cover types of clay body used for alternative firings, making techniques, raku glaze application and firing, burnishing  and an introduction to two-step naked raku. We also include a horsehair/feather  firing and you will make and fire a 'mummy' saggar as well as preparing pots for a saggar firing with plant decoration. We will load and fire a barrel kiln . Participants would need to bring suitable bisqued pieces - either sculptural or vessel forms but we will have prepared pots for sale at £10 each.  Information on types of clay to use and bisque temperatures will be provided with booking confirmation. Our  focus is on decorating for alternative firing techniques and introduction to firing and gaining confidence with raku and saggar kilns. 

Cornish Pottery Holidays

cornish pottery holidays

Boskednan

"Cornish Pottery Holidays on the Penwith peninsula in Cornwall should get you throwing with confidence. The course runs for five full days so there’s enough time to work at your own pace with plenty of input from the tutor, ceramic artist Caroline Winn. As the studio is available around the clock, you’d have time to practice and experiment. Expect a house-party atmosphere, comfortable rooms and good food." / From The Times, 28th November 2015 Highly recommended. Am a relative beginner but I got to use and experiment with all types of clay such as porcelain, paper porcelain etc which you don't normally get access to on other pottery courses. Caroline is incredibly encouraging and an excellent teacher. It was a perfect week for me because as well as it being a fantastic course, it was set against a backdrop of beautiful Cornwall with access to fabulous walks and there was the added bonus of staying in a beautiful house where you really couldn't have felt more welcome. The meals were delicious too! Hoping to return. / Lindsey Bowen, June 2018 A fantastic place and space. Caroline is wonderfully enthusiastic and gently draws out your creative side, even if you didn't think you had one! Beautiful surroundings, a warm comfortable home with fabulous food and excellent company. A fabulous experience. / Clunis O'Halloran, Dec 2019 Just returned from a fabulous pottery holiday. Beautiful location. Caroline and Martin welcome you into their lovely home and garden. Caroline is a great teacher and full of enthusiasm and ideas. And Martin's food is excellent. It's been a week of education (on many subjects over dinner!), a lot of laughter with new friends, camaraderie and creativity. Thoroughly recommended!! / Christine Howard, Nov 2019

Wimborne

Walford Mill Education Trust is a registered charity which aims to promote crafts and making through events, classes, and exhibitions and by providing working space for established and emerging makers. Spring 2019 This spring brings new changes to Walford Mill. The mill, a converted historic watermill in the heart of Wimborne, has been home to Walford Mill Education Trust for over 30 years. Following the need to seek a more sustainable future, Walford Mill Education trust is changing its commercial focus and will be providing new opportunities for talented, local artists, makers and designers. The current shop on the ground floor will be replaced by a brand new education space with existing disabled access via a disabled ramp. Artists, schools, touring exhibitors and makers will soon also be able to book unique flexible art exhibition spaces on the ground floor to showcase their art and craft to the public. Although there is no longer a dedicated shop on-site almost all work on display in the exhibitions and by the makers in their studios is available for purchase, priced to suit all pockets. Studio rental space will double and the new space will be available for hire on the top floor which will be a welcome opportunity allowing local makers and artists to work and exhibit in East Dorset at competitive rates. Graduates and emerging new makers will also be able to benefit from working alongside like-minded artists enabling them to bring their work to the public eye.
